[quote]Find a park without sand or wood chips. Take them to an open grassy areas and bring toys/bubbles. There are solutions. Your 2 year old is not old enough to respond to threats/consequences yet. [/quote]
Her two-year-old is going to respond to proper discipline. Not to threats, on that, I agree. I worked with 2-year-olds, so I am not talking without knowing anything. The best thing to do is not get pleading, beginning and emotional. Get down to your kid's level, firmly say, we don't throw sand. Mom wants you to stop. If you don't stop, you will be in a time-out, or I will take away your shovel...
Then do it, do not beg or plead again! Then the kid won, and the kids want a reaction. Enough talking about this or that with your 2-year-old! Firm, loving, consequences, trust me they get it asap.
Two-year-olds do understand consequences better than you think. But, they need to be immediate and followed through. This is why kids are out of control! You are all acting like they know nothing, understand nothing and you are acting like you are brokering a peace deal between Isreal and Gaza!
Remember that you are in charge, your kid doesn't understand your War and Peace about the pros and cons of throwing sand!
But, your 2 year old understand, mom was not happy and I am sitting here bcs I threw sand. Not an hour alter, that instant kid knows that.[/quote]
